While we all love Spooky month, October is also Breast Cancer Awareness month π
Anyone can get Breast Cancer. Please check yourself and if something feels off, please see your doctor. It could save your life.
It saved mine.
Let's turn 1 in 8 into none in 8 π©·

It's always good to be on the opposite side from those who throw slurs around and have nothing of value to say

We've actually reviewed the code β both the 2023 open-sourced Twitter algorithm and the newer xAI Rust-based version.
The 2023 code already had "author is Elon" boost signals. The new algorithm is even less transparent and directly integrates Grok for content ranking.
This isn't a bug. It's not accidental. The platform is architected to amplify right-wing content and suppress everything else.
When you control the algorithm, you control what 500M people see. That's not a social network β it's a propaganda machine with a reply button.
The Forbes study just confirmed what the code already showed.

Someone used the KSP soundtrack as backing to an AI-slop voice video called "30 Affirmations To Manifest Abundance", got 4 views, then submitted it to YouTube's copyright bank, so now KSP videos that have the KSP soundtrack are getting claimed (including my most recent one).
@YouTube I have submitted a dispute but ongoing abuse of the copyright system needs to be cracked down on and I hope this can be investigated and dealt with swiftly @YouTubeCreators
The claimant video (they are claiming the song is called "30 Affirmations To Manifest Abundance"):

The ACTUAL song is called Bathed in the Light by Kevin Macleod and also IS IN THE YOUTUBE AUDIO LIBRARY (screenshot attached)! And is free to use under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0.

The strangest part of leaving my echo chamber isn't discovering liberals aren't monsters.
It's realizing how much the people I left behind need them to be.

I left my echo chamber, where I was assured liberals all hated America, hated me, and lived in shrieking hysteria.
I found nothing of the sort.
The infamous monsters, it seems, exist only in viral reels, rage bait posts, and the fevered imagination of those who need them.

Many of you who believe βMAH RIGHTSβ βthe government needs to be smaller and not tell me what to doβ βeveryone is corruptβ are the same ones who bend over, spread your cheeks wide apart, and relax your hole while saying βjust complyβ about every single egregious and disgusting overreach of the American government. Useless and stupid people who will not be saved

A lot of you are under the mistaken impression that progress means advances in tech. Real progress is kids who are literate, free meals for public school students, a culture in which human art & poetry are celebrated. We're regressing rapidly & the only way forward is to read.

My wife always tells me not to be political on FB and then tossed this up yesterday

That's called Xenephobia and, no, it isn't reasonable. Americans have lived next to people who speak a different language since America was founded. We had a president whose first language wasn't English.

I worked on CEA, and both MCC versions.
Most of what EL covers were the exact conversations/arguments (some of which were clearly lost) we had when working on them.
They are correct.

Iβm so tired of reading this dumbass lazy opinion.
This introduction to this video literally explains that Iβm attempting to provide feedback given the year of development time remaining.
Details like aesthetic and environment are not trivial, especially for a game like Halo.
βYou Halo fans are never happyβ. I donβt know what to tell you β every game has had issues.

I hate it so much. βWe have no goals or visionβ¦ letβs just leave it to the players to decide what our game is!β
